Antique Questions Forum / Old lamp shade
« on: July 15, 2011, 04:12:06 pm »
I bought it from an art market a few weeks ago. It belonged to an important Romanian politician, also the governor of National Bank of Romania, Constantin Angelescu who died in 1948. It seems he was very passionate about collecting art of all kinds and was travelling a lot to France and United States.
It is made of brass and its dimensions are: H= 45cm, Diam = max18cm. As detail, there are 45 medallions with various figures...
For me, a person not too much in contact with art looks like a Moroccan/Persian handmade lamp shade or possibly an incense burner - maybe from the beginning of the 20st century. But I am not very sure of anything...
Any ideas that could help me? Thank you!!!
